Perfect video. The 2015 is just a little different than previous model years and your video got me completely sorted out. If you have a torque wrench the bottom is 40ftlbs and the top is 20ftlbs.

The timing of your video couldn't have been more perfect. For *months* I struggled with a super loud and annoying rattling sound emanating from the rear cargo area. I always just assumed it was a loose spare tire rim making contact with bare metal or something else related to that area constantly hitting bare metal. After a half day of meticulous troubleshooting and coming up unsuccessful, I decided to search the interwebs for potential causes and came across this video. Lo and behold, not only did i have bad shocks (would not extend back out when pushed in) but the actual culprit was that dense OEM foamy cushiony ring that goes around the threaded part towards the top of the shock. I was unable to re-use that part, as shown in the video, so i just used the new hardware that came with the shocks (same brand used in the video) but needed to use 2 washers to tighten down properly to avoid any wiggle (one old and and one new washer that came with the kit). Thank you so much for the detailed footage and explanation of everything... you really made this otherwise daunting task super easy and because of your recommendation, I too replaced all my interior bulbs with LEDs and love the difference.

Excellent. Glad to hear it. Yeah those LEDs make all the difference when you need it the most.

Yeah man, dog pee pads or else my wife hits me over the head with the frying pan,,,and I spent 200 bucks on that Hexclad pan. Shout out to Hexclad pots and pans, she loves them.

Also, that rubber bushing your showing should be on the new shock over the metal piece before sliding on the old oem cover. Hopefully will help you get some more life out of your shock next time

How many miles do you think they last?

Rear shocks should last approximately 40-50k, provided you don't drive over curbs as was the case in my video. Those shocks saw about 20k before needing to be replaced due to leaking. But not a failure on the shock because it did it's job. Damage to the car would be much worse if it didn't have shocks at all.
